I was never a cat lover, in fact I was allergic to them in my younger years, however I went away to work for a short while, when I got home one week my wife had obtained a cat via the CPL, we never really hit it off, apparently the cat had been abused by a previous male owner, she had lost all her hair and was such a state. That was 15 years ago, we still have the cat, she's still wary of me but we get on a lot better. We rescued another cat last year, she had also been abused, she took to me straight away and I'm not ashamed to say that I love her to bits, my opinion has changed on cats for the better, but listening to work colleagues and 'Blokes' in the pub I understand that there is a lot of prejudice against these harmless pets. I can tell you for one, if any person regardless of standing or stature hurt either of my cats I would swing for them, I think it is only a sneak and a coward that could possess the notion or contemplation to hurt a cat. Sorry, just had to say it...
